“Mom, we’re home!” Emmanuel exclaimed in excitement before walking

through the door.

Upon hearing the voice, everyone in the room immediately stood up.

Alessandra and Roselynn were undoubtedly the most anxious.

Alessandra, who usually had difficulty walking, seemed to be moving

swiftly at that moment.

Even Roselynn could not catch up with her at all.

“Quick, let’s catch a glimpse of Manny’s wife!” Jack Lowe exclaimed.

Jack was Benny’s son and Emmanuel’s cousin.

Benny had made a fortune from his business, so his financial success

allowed his son to lead a lavish lifestyle and indulge in vices like drinking,

gambling, and fooling around. He particularly had a strong interest in

women.

However, his eagerness to bring his wife to see Emmanuel’s wife had

nothing to do with her beauty.

All this while, he had always looked down on Emmanuel. I highly doubt a

twenty-eight-year-old with an annual salary of eighty thousand can

marry a woman of high quality. His wife must be an older, unsophisticated

country bumpkin.

Jack felt his other half would be in stark contrast to Emmanuel’s wife. My

stunning wife, with her flawless complexion and irresistible figure, is a

constant source of pride for me!

He was eager to see Emmanuel’s reaction when he saw his wife. I want to

know how he feels when he compares his wife to mine! I bet he’ll be

envious of me!

However, Jack’s jaw dropped in astonishment when he saw Mackenzie

walking in with Emmanuel. Oh, my! Is such beauty even real?

All the other family members were just as stunned.

Even Ryder’s six-year-old son couldn’t contain his excitement and blurted

out, “Daddy, Uncle Manny’s wife is so pretty! She’s even prettier than Uncle

Jack’s wife. She’s more beautiful than Mommy too!”

The atmosphere instantly turned awkward.

Emmanuel’s gaze shifted to his cousin, Ryder Lowe, and his wife, Abellyn

Sheppard.

Emmanuel knew Ryder, with his easygoing nature, would not be fazed by

the remark. However, Abellyn was known for her pettiness. Emmanuel

worried she might harbor resentment toward Mackenzie due to their son’s

words.

“Hi there, I’m Jack. I’m Manny’s cousin!” In the next moment, Jack let go of

his wife’s hand and enthusiastically approached Mackenzie with a

beaming smile, wanting to shake her hand. I’d be honored to hold the

hand of someone as stunningly beautiful as her!

Jack could not help but opine that his wife’s skin could not hold a candle

to Mackenzie’s flawless complexion. I wonder how smooth her hand is.

To his disappointment, Mackenzie did not extend her hand for a

handshake. She simply nodded in acknowledgment before casually

placing the chicken she was holding on the ground.

As the CEO of Terence Group, she could tell a person’s character at one

glance.

The fact that he had withdrawn his hand from his wife and reached out for

hers revealed his lack of decency.

Jack’s expression turned sour as he witnessed Mackenzie’s arrogance.

Being attractive doesn’t give you the right to treat others with disrespect!

“Hey, you’re Mackenzie, right? It’s great to see you here! You didn’t have to

bring the chicken, but we appreciate it.” Alessandra finally caught up. She

reprimanded Emmanuel, “What’s wrong with you? How could you get your

wife to carry the chicken?”

Emmanuel responded with a wry smile.

Roselynn quickly came to his defense. “Mom, you’re being unfair. Didn’t

you notice that Manny has his hands full carrying all these things?”

“But it’s still inappropriate for him to ask her to carry the chicken!”

Alessandra exclaimed.

Alessandra’s comment struck a chord with Mackenzie. Look at what your

son did to me! I almost got pecked by that chicken!

As the esteemed CEO of Terence Group, Mackenzie believed she had

demonstrated her utmost respect by not releasing the chicken halfway

and instead disposing of it in the courtyard upon their arrival.

“Come on in!” Alessandra warmly invited them to enter the house, but she

did not dare to touch her daughter-in-law.

Although Alessandra was thrilled to see Mackenzie and desired to build a

closer relationship with her, she sensed Mackenzie’s aloofness, which

made her hesitant to approach her too closely, fearing that Mackenzie

might not appreciate physical contact.
